Dr. Broderick Day led the Bayshore Basketball team for over 13 years. His son, BJ Day (A '10) was Assistant Coach. Our Board President said, "Under his leadership, BCS saw new levels of excellence... in athletics and as Dean of Students." Under Coach Day our Boys Varsity basketball team achieved, Bay Conference Runner Up ('14), District Champions ('14, '17, & '19), Regional Champions ('19), Regional Runner Up ('17), State Final Four ('20).
We wish Coach the absolute very best as he has faithfully served our school in various capacities for the last thirteen years- most recently as our Dean of Students, Athletic Director and Head Boys Basketball Coach.
His hard work, loyalty and commitment to our students will be greatly missed by all!

Former BCS Coach and a true Legacy, Herman Valdes, participated in chapel at Bayshore Christian School for Hispanic Heritage month.
He shared his testimony, his love for the Lord, his love for his family, his student athletes and of course his love for BCS!
The interview turned into an opportunity for him to preach- he took it and ran! The students loved it and many accepted Christ!
Thanks Coach for always sharing your passion for Christ!
